This specimen was lot 74286 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, November 2023), where it sold for $660. The catalog description[1] noted, "ITALY. 5 Centesimi, 1913-R. Rome Mint. Vittorio Emanuele II. PCGS MS-65 Red Brown. A beautiful Gem with much retained Mint Red throughout, this example delivers much charm and appeal. The sole finest graded example certified by PCGS." This type, struck 1908-09, 1912-15, 1918, is surprisingly scarce compared to the similar one and two centesimi. In 1919, the weight was reduced to 3.26 g (KM 59) and many may have been melted.
Recorded mintage: 1,964,000.
Specification: 5 g, bronze, 25 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM-42.
